Hi,

Well.....here we go again......
At least, they're adressing this propulsion-related problem in a seemingly more up-front and honest manner than what was done with NCL Dream's problems....

With the pattern that seems to have developped over the years with certain types of propulsion systems...makes you wonder if 2006 is not going to be a record year for '' unscheduled '' drydock for most lines...All the newbuilds from 2001-2003 range , and equipped with those '' suspect'' systems will be all '' due '' for the seemingly unavoidable '' thrust bearing failure'' scenario....Hopefully not as persistent as the Millie class.

Cheers
CG
